We would like to port a QNX application currently in French into Chinese.
Could someone give us a hint about the requirements to do so, such as :
constraints on character set to be used in strings displayed
supplements to install on the target OS (QNX in chinese)
If someone has experience on porting application from a Western codeset to
Chinese, we would appreciate some guidance.
Many thanks.

On QNX 6.2.1 and 6.3 I was able to use UTF-8 strings (in char * arrays)
and put them into PtWidgets and it worked great, chinese was no problem.
You don’t need to give it any special treatment except to understand
that a byte != a character, like it is in ASCII. So when measuring
strings, strlen will give you the number of bytes, but not chars.
